Sheffield Tree Action Groups

STAG is an umbrella group representing the local tree action groups that have sprung up all over the city. We are non party-political and our supporters come from a wide range of backgrounds, all brought together by the need to save our city’s healthy street trees.

In 2012 the ‘Streets Ahead’ highway renewal programme, run by Amey on behalf of Sheffield City Council, began mass-felling highway trees – these ‘before and after’ photographs demonstrate the impact. What we want is a more considered and expert-led approach to the management and guardianship of the city’s street trees, for the long-term benefit of both residents and the environment.

So, what would you like to know about saving Sheffield’s trees?
